Heres a couple I started today.

This ones for a 10 year old. There is a pic of me and her in the frame but I blanked it out as I didnt think it was very sensible to post her pic up.



And this ones for my friend



Cost wise I paid £16 for ten baskets so those two were only £3.20
Top basket
Candle £2 in Tesco sale
Frame £2 in Tesco sale
Next stuff was something I got given to me as a gift and never used. Theres a wee pink make up bag that they came in at the bottom.
Bracelet I bought for her when I was away on Honeymoon and never got round to giving her it. Think it was about £2

Bottom basket
All stuff I already had and never used so free yay

Both will be getting wee bags of my homemade fudge aswell but dont want to bag that up yet.

i hope this helps someone. i ordered some christmas celephane of ebay and it came today. its gorgeous and not completley see through so it will give my baskets a kind of wrapped feel and they will have to be opened to see whats in them. she has loads just look at her shop.

i thought id post it in case anyone wanted something a little different. i just finished my first basket today so im waiting for my husband to come home to ppost a picture. need to order some bows before i wrap it though.

Thats the same seller I ordered my sweetie bags from. They have loads of lovely stuff on there.

i thought that and some of it so unusual as well. i love the wrapping its just going to add that extra christmassy touch to my hampers.

Emms, they both look really lovely. I'd be happy to receive either as a gift. Even the one for the 10 year old (cos I'm a big kid at heart)!!!

I've ordered some off this seller too. Can't wait for them to arrive - they make the hampers look so luxurious.

I love seeing all these finished baskets! I cant wait to do mine!

I have ordered cellophane and bows from EBay and found some nice basket in the 99p store today.

Thanks for the inspiration!
